Dubai: Despite the weather getting hotter, northern parts of the UAE will get some reprieve as light rains are expected to fall on Tuesday morning.

According to the National Centre for Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS), it will be partly cloudy today with moderate gusts of wind that will lead to a drop in temperature, especially over the western region.

Light rain is expected to continue until Thursday night across northern, coastal and island areas, with partly cloudy weather.
